I’m not going to lie and say I don’t shop at Walmart & end up bringing home some items made in China. But when it comes to clothes, especially, we found out the hard way their stuff is garbage. My husband wore Land’s End super tees to work for years. Then they started having them made in China. The cotton was coarse and thin. The necks were big and saggy. And the sizing was comically off.

There is nooo way I’d buy Chinese furniture. I live near Greenfront Furniture In Farmville, VA—it’s a huge million sq. ft. shopping complex with 13 warehouses (one for rugs alone)! Not all of their stuff is American made, but much of it is.

Darn. I wish I lived near Greenfront Furniture, I haven't been able to find a rug for the family room. No, I wouldn't buy Chinese furniture either. Walmart has started to go back to some of their items being made in the USA.

I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union, one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes. I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution, to obey its laws; to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

I don't understand your comment. FEDZILLA? LIKE YOUR OBAMA WHO MANDATED OBAMCARE UNDER PENALTY ? LIKE THAT? OR OBAMA who outsourced NASA to RUSSIA...and outsourced cars to Mexico, jobs to Philippines, Africa, gave Brazil money, instead of USA. FEDZILLA LIKE THAT? Shezzzzz

@LegalAmericanI admire your enthusiastic comparison of President Trump to President Obama, undaunted that the comparison might not cast President Trump in a favorable light. I think they share a mutual incompetence, self-delution, self-absorption, superficial compassion for their voters, and antipathy for the rest of America. Perhaps they'll call this the Obama/Trump years in the future.

We've had trade deals forever by fedzilla. Now it is a problem for you, because of president TRUMP..trying to fix it all?

The problem is Trump is screwing it up, and he's screwing it up in swing states he won in 2016.

Never did I dream that troops taking that same oath would be ordered under any circumstance to violate the Constitutional rights of their fellow citizens — much less to provide a bizarre photo op for the elected commander-in-chief, with military leadership standing alongside. - US Defense Secretary Jim Mattis

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

I don’t know how expensive Greenfront furniture is...my mother-in-law shopped there before, but I haven’t. If it’s out of sight I’ll go somewhere else, but it’ll still be fun to look around.

The right rug is hard to find!

I say this to Beto fans, Trump fans, all fans of politicians: it is un-American, ridiculous, and dangerous to be a fan of a politician. They aren't pop stars. Support them if you agree with their policies. Criticize them when they go wrong. They are servants, not celebrities. —— Matt Walsh

Once again, you post a true fact. You are truly smart and discerning to correctly see the small detail and the large detail. Almost every item in a house is made in China. Your clothes are made in China, your shoes are made in China. Your kitchen items are made in China. Your kitchen dishes are made in China. Your pens and pencils are made in China. You name it, it's made in China. People saying don't buy Chinese products do not know the above. People on limited money will not be able to afford what they need to live.

The Trump line of ties and clothes and his daughter's line of clothes and I think she has/had a line of shoes, are made in China. Trump said he couldn't find a company in the US who could make things like ties and clothes. Trump does not care if prices go up, he has enough money to buy whatever he wants no matter what they cost.
